Very sadly, Graham passed away during a match at Leeds on 2nd June.
Graham was one of our most regular players at the Pierhead and was one of our best players in the West Yorkshire League.
Apart from being a good petanque player, Graham was well-liked, very sociable and with a wicked sense of humour.
His dress sense was questionable, with his legs on display even on the coldest of days.
Our thoughts are with Sandra and their family at this sad time.
Please note the Pierhead terrain is reserved for

Thanks to Sandra for organising.
We hosted a melee with Bridlington Petanque Club on 6th August.
We had a prize for best Harrogate player, Brenda, and the best Bridlington player was Polly who won a shootout with their 3 top scorers.
Hoping to have a return match at Bridlington some time, watch this space!
